Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) use high-throughput genotyping technologies to genotype and impute millions of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and relate them to the development of clinical and quantitative traits. Their use has been highly successful in the field of ophthalmology, and ...

Concepts and Misconceptions about the Polygenic Additive Model

Assuming an infinitesimal model of liability to disease for such diseases would be inefficient when applied to risk prediction [24, 25] ...
